NOTTINGHAM FOREST exorcised their demons after last week's defeat at Derby with a seventh consecutive home win over rapidly improving Sheffield Wednesday, whose Alan Irvine was announced as Championship manager of the month yesterday.

Wednesday had most of the possession and the bulk of what few clear-cut chances there were, but had only Luke Varney's close-range equaliser to show for their efforts.
